Honestly, since she is unspayed, they really can’t detect an infection, and her sludge is not severe, my bet is that this is hormonal. All the symptoms (marking, mounting, no signs of pain or discomfort) line up with an unspayed bun just acting normally. Since you mentioned your vet is not truly that rabbit savvy I would personally not want to start throwing medications at her just to see if it helps.

Are you planning to get her spayed? I know it can be really scary, but if you can go to the rabbit savvy vet it would be less scary.

In female rabbits there is a really high risk of reproductive cancers (around 75% or so by age 4), so there are health reasons to spay in addition to the behavioral reasons. If you had to go to the vet that was far away they could likely keep her overnight so she wouldn’t have to make that long journey right after waking up.
